Age of Empires III

Age of Empires III is the latest entry in the empire-building RTS series from Ensemble and Microsoft. The game is set in colonial America, and covers its colonization and eventual independence, from 1500AD to 1850AD.

Widescreen resolutions are supported out of the box. All you need to do is select one in the graphics options menu. Most of the HUD elements stretch. Though interestingly, the circular mini-map does not.

All of the cut-scenes in this game appear to be rendered in-game. They are pillarboxed, even the "wide" ones. The proportions are correct, but anamorphic cut-scenes (or even Hor+ ones) would have been nice.
